The child with testicular enlargement in the absence of gonadotrophin stimulation presents a difficult diagnostic dilemma. Leydig cell tumors, Leydig cell hyperplasia, and tumors of adrenal rest tissue are the primary etiologic considerations. Because of considerable overlap in clinical presentation, careful biochemical and histologic evaluations are necessary to make the diagnosis. These shoul...

متن کاملTesticular Adrenal Rest Tumor Mimicking Leydig Cell Tumor in a Patient with Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia

Testicular adrenal rest tumors (TARTs) are may have serious consequences in patients with CAH. They probably develop from ectopic remnants of intratesticular adrenal tissue, which might be stimulated by the rise of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). Their histo...
متن کاملValue of dynamic, contrast-enhanced MRI & intraoperative ultrasound for management of a nonpalpable, incidental, testicular Leydig-cell tumor
We report a case of a small, intratesticular, incidentally identified, nonpalpable Leydig-cell tumor in which preoperative, dynamic, contrast-enhanced MRI was essential in characterizing the lesion as a neoplasm. Sonographic evaluation failed to demonstrate internal color Doppler flow, resulting in a differential diagnosis that included debris-filled cyst. At surgical resection, intraoperative ...

A 10-year-old female German Shepherd dog was presented because of protrusion of a large tumor-like mass of 16 × 14 × 7 cm in dimensions from her vagina. After stabilization of the patient, the mass was removed surgically and concurrent ovariohysterectomy was also performed. Macroscopically, the healthy...
